Valorization of keratin biofibers for removing heavy metals from aqueous solutions [PDF]
Four common waste keratin biofibers (human hair, dog hair, chicken feathers, and degreased wool) have been used as biosorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. Different parameters of the biosorption processes were optimized in

Microfabricated heavy metal ion sensor
Abstract A novel microfabricated electrochemical sensor has been developed for the detection and measurement of heavy metal ions in aqueous media. The sensor consists of a silicon substrate, on which is fabricated an electrically interconnected, but diffusionally isolated, array of thin-film iridium microelectrodes upon which a thin film of mercury ...

Wastewater Treatment from Heavy Metal Ions
Abstract The article is devoted to the sorption treatment of industrial effluents, which contain heavy metal ions (HMI) by the natural clay mineral kaolinite - an activated adsorbent. The main sources of HMI receipts are revealed - industrial and agricultural production. The influence of heavy metals on human health is considered.

Methods of using carbon nanotubes as filter media to remove aqueous heavy metals [PDF]
Although carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are well known to have a strong affinity to various heavy metals in aqueous solution, little research has been dedicated to exploit their use in fixed-bed water treatment systems (e.g., trickling filters).
